Psalms 83:1-18

Do not keep silent, O God; Do not hold Your peace or be still, O God. For behold, Your enemies are in tumult, And those who hate You have raised their heads [in hatred of You]. [Acts 4:25, 26] They concoct crafty schemes against Your people, And conspire together against Your hidden and precious ones. They have said, “Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation; Let the name of Israel be remembered no more.” For they have conspired together with one mind; Against You they make a covenant— The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Of Moab and the Hagrites, Gebal and Ammon and Amalek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre. Assyria also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot [the Ammonites and the Moabites] and have been an arm [of strength] to them. Selah. ¶Deal with them as [You did] with Midian, As with Sisera and Jabin at the brook of Kishon, [Judg 4:12-24] Who were destroyed at En-dor, Who became like dung for the earth. Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb And all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, [Judg 7:23-25; 8:10-21] Who said, “Let us possess for ourselves The pastures of God.” ¶O my God, make them like whirling dust, Like chaff before the wind [worthless and without substance]. Like fire consumes the forest, And like the flame sets the mountains on fire, So pursue them with Your tempest And terrify them with [the violence of] Your storm. Fill their faces with shame and disgrace, That they may [persistently] seek Your name, O LORD. Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever; Yes, let them be humiliated and perish, That they may know that You alone, whose name is the LORD, Are the Most High over all the earth.
